Full Description ?️ Your day begins with a comfortable, air-conditioned ride to the coast. The first stop is Los Haitises National Park, a UNESCO-protected sanctuary where you will board a boat to navigate through massive mangroves and visit ancient Taino caves. You’ll see over 950 historic pictographs left behind by the island's indigenous people hundreds of years ago.
Next, we head to Rancho Salto Yanigua, a hidden jungle oasis. Here, you can bathe in the cool waters of a private waterfall and apply mineral-rich river clay to your skin for a natural spa experience. You’ll also visit local plantations to see how cocoa is transformed into chocolate and discover the secrets of Dominican Blue Amber. After working up an appetite, enjoy an exquisite all-you-can-eat Dominican buffet lunch served right by the river.
The final leg of the journey takes you to Montaña Redonda. You’ll hop onto a powerful safari truck to climb 1,000 feet above sea level. Once at the top, you can relax in hammocks or take iconic photos on the mountain-top swings, offering a birds-eye view of Samaná Bay and the surrounding lagoons.
